I have been researching into worm farming and composting. Today I have started my first attempt at a worm farm/compost bin. I bought a cheap plastic storage bin, drilled some holes into the lid and sides, and ripped up some newspaper/cardboard to put inside. After putting the scredded paper mixture into the bin with some soil and wetting it I set it aside. Tomorrow I will try my hand at grubbing for worms to put into my bin. Should be fun and messy.
After getting my worm bin prepared, I then proceeded onto planting some seeds for the future garden. I have started : carrots, brussel sprouts, spinach, kohl rabi, peas, and green onions. I am going to look up how to make some newpaper pots to make more pots for more seeds. I am also going to have to swing by the seed store and pick up some more squash, cucumber, and tomatoe seeds. Mmmm plotting the future tasty meals and canning projects in my mind right now.
This after was a fun get out of the house time with Paula as we went to the local "casino" and played the digital slots. Came out $3 ahead, got a free lunch, and some tickets to a local raffle for a scooter. So overal not bad. Also, I got a phone call from a doctor I used to help out with in the office who wants to hire me to work in her office again. And on the upside she mentioned she could help me with earning my CNA. Sweet! A new job in an area that I am looking into entering as a new career. Things are looking up. Now if only the chain of bad luck that has been following me can stay far far away...
